The entire core cast of Baldur's Gate 3 will come together to role-play their own characters in what I can only describe as the ultimate D&D session.

When I first saw the “dog” mechanic in Pikmin 4, I was skeptical that it would even work. After playing Pikmin 4, I want the dog modded into every game before it. Yes, that dog, adorably named “Oatchi,” is arguably the start of the game. Not only does it look cute: it also heavily factors into the storyline of the fourth main iteration, and it’s one of the most useful game mechanics I’ve experienced in a long while.
It took very little time to get acclimated to how the little pup worked, and before long I was riding along with him, sending him on odd jobs while I split up my Pikmin force. Dandori (the art of organization, essentially) is a huge part of the game’s philosophy and level design, and Oatchi slots perfectly into that ethos. As someone you’re able to independently operate alongside of the different types of Pikmin, it’s a blast to discern what jobs he’s best for, and what upgrade tracks you want to tackle first. “Build potential” is not something I ever thought I’d be tinkering with in a Pikmin game, but here we are. Did I mention Pikmin 4 rules and you should play it?
All of Oatchi’s glory is reflected in a new promo titled “Oatchi, the Space Dog of Tomorrow,” which you can view below. Expect lots of old-school sci-fi references, not unlike most of Bethesda’s Fallout marketing. It’s also not a bad way to see what the game actually entails, and what Oatchi does in-game.

Hey gamers! We have got some news about the games leaving Xbox Game Pass in the last weeks of September 2023. Microsoft just dropped the list of games that will say goodbye, and we're here to give you the scoop.

The trading card game is still fairly new with its initial release of having just launched on September 1, 2023, so naturally, a lot of people are starting off as beginners. One of the unique features of the deck-building game is that each deck can consist of up to two ink colors of any combination. With six total inks making up the universe, this means there are 15 possible combinations of ink colors that players can use to make up their decks in addition to mono-ink decks.
We've seen a lot of The Sims-likes lately, but this might just be the cutest one yet.
While playing through Starfield's 19 Main Missions you'll unlock some cool things, but one set of very cool things is a game changer. We will spoil it below for those who are OK with that sort of thing, but suffice it to say: We highly recommend playing through a specific amount of the Main Missions to unlock a very cool thing that you'll want to use in the remaining Main Missions, Side Missions, faction quests, and basically every opportunity — and it's something that, if you get it early, it gets even better the more you play.

Apologies to those devoted to the September equinox, but summer… is over. And in the rearview mirror, a surprisingly major season for movies.
I really like the companion conversations in Baldur's Gate 3—they range from adding new insight to characters to being absolutely hilarious, like this one with Astarion where he rips you a new one for your bad aim.
